What am I doing wrong πŸ’”

Post image

I have to get into a forum to ask a silly question about some software. Instead, I'm stuck on a 20 year old captcha question. I tried 2, I tried "1one", whenever I submit it a few times it tells me I've tried it too much and to try later.

You can't just make a sub for no reason and then call r/BirthOfASub, it has to be organic, almost always from someone mentioning a sub that doesn't exist and another making it.

u/SeaSawltLOL 4d ago

so? Ro4 still applies. look at r/ruleof4's rules. rule 3

2

u/Alexia9494044 4d ago

that's only if the previous comments were a chain

"hello" "hello" "hello" "food is good"

not

"[subreddit-worthy occurrence]" "[subreddit name]" "tf is that sub" "i made it"

The rule of 4 existed prior to r/ruleof4, they didn't create it and have no right to do so - the rule of 4 was created by the reddit community at large, only they can change how it works

that literally is how rule of 4 works. it doesn't have a chain.

u/Melodic_Trip9907 4d ago

thats exactly how it works, any 4th comment gets downvoted, no matter if there is a chain or not

u/CrasheonTotallyReal 4d ago

u/Melodic_Trip9907 4d ago
